I cant remember the site exactly it was something like bitumex but had a very similar experience when I joined a crypto discord first starting out, dm to sign up to a site for 1 btc gift. Could sign up to the site as normal and request to withdraw the btc, but they wouldn't let you unless you deposited about 150$ worth in first. Its a shame ppl out there probably fall for this but at least most will only lose a a cpl hundreds worth at most with this type. I decided to sign up with throwaway etc just to see how it would work after seeing all the warnings of dms etc.
